/dev/hda is the first disk.  to boot off of /dev/sda you need to
probably reconfigure your BIOS or something to do it, or install LILO to
the MBR on /dev/hda.

i had a similar configuration on a BP6, boot drive was SCSI but i had
IDE and LILO gave the same message, but i had the bios configured to
boot from the scsi so there was no trouble.
